Jewel of the Seas Ship Review

The Jewel of the Seas and her sister ships feature many of the design and technological advancements of Royal Caribbean's larger ships, but are built to allow it to cruise the Panama Canal.

This cruise liner is the fourth ship in RCI's very successful Radiance class. She entered service in Europe in May 2004.

She is 90,090 tons, and her class is sometimes considered the best-looking Royal Caribbean ships with nicely rounded lines and good overall proportions.
